The Ipri, which measures the monthly evolution of the prices of industrial products manufactured and sold in the domestic market, at the first stage of their commercialization, excluding transport and marketing costs and VAT charged, is conducted monthly using a sample of 28,000 prices from 9,000 industrial establishments each month.
The evolution of energy has contributed to a slowdown in industrial prices, with a 2.5 points reduction in its annual variation to 1.5%. As a result, the prices for the entire range of industrial sectors in Spain rose by only 0.3% in July compared to the same month last year, a decrease from the 1% increase in the previous month.
In conclusion, while the overall Spanish industry is experiencing a downturn, the textile, clothing, and leather and footwear sectors are showing signs of resilience, with moderate price increases compared to previous months.
